DESCRIPTION
The Set Real-Time Clock (
S
) command is used to set the battery-backed-up internal real-time clock of the unit.
The
time
argument follows the same format as the standard Time/Date input format. In order for the Time/Date
stamping of output data to be accurate, the real-time clock must be set to an accurate Time/Date. Once set, the
real-time clock will remember the current time, even when powered off.
For more information on the real-time clock, Time/Date stamping and data formats, see section Additional
Configuration, section Stamping Configuration and section Data Format Configuration, respectively, in the
chapter System Configuration.
